[squid-users] Assertion failed (mempool.cc)

[Gabor Berczi]

Greets.

I've fucked up something and now newly compiled squid executables  
don't start. The previous one does. Where do I start looking?

Assertion failed: (aLabel != NULL && aSize), function  
MemImplementingAllocator, file MemPool.cc, line 394.

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
